FEW people are aware to what an ex.
tent the raisin industry has been de-
veloped in California. Two decades
ago scarcely any raisins were produced
i'm the State, but this year the total es-
innate is placed as high as 1900, 900
boxes of twenty pounds each. The
capital employed in the business will
range somewhere between three mill
ions and five millions of dollars. The
quality of the grapes and the curing
and packing have steadily improved,
so that California raisins now equal
the best sent out from any other coun-
try in the world.
